Re: Recent Updates...

I thought the same when Mark posted the original article.  The Domia
Lite units seem to be the same (or at least compatible with) various
other brands sold across Europe, such as Elro and Nexa.  I would be
surprised if this budget line is built from scratch, so I'm expecting
the Byron units to be based on similar existing RF devices.  If so, the
RFXCOM recievers and transmitters will probably do the trick as far as
PC control goes.  I'm planning to buy a few modules when they go on sale
and test them out.
